Ethiopian Factories Ordered to Halve Power Use, Capital Reports
By Jason McLure
Feb. 15 (Bloomberg) -- Ethiopia’ s state-run power utility, the Ethiopian Electric Power Corp., has ordered factories in the country to halve energy consumption following the collapse of a tunnel that halted production at the country’ s largest power plant, Capital reported.
Repairing the tunnel to the Gilgel Gibe II hydropower station could take as long as two months and cost as much as 18 million euros ($24.5 million), the Addis Ababa-based newspaper said, citing Mihret Debebe, general manager of the utility.
Rolling blackouts began in the capital, Addis Ababa, earlier this month. More than 90 percent of Ethiopia’ s electricity comes from hydropower.
